How to apply

Organisation membership

If you are registering your organisation for the first time, please fill out the entire form below. Give us as much detail as you can, as this is the information that will be used to populate your organisation’s page in our member directory, and will help people find you, and the services you offer.

(If you are not sure whether your organisation is a member, please search in the list. We need a single primary point of contact in any organisation, but can send newsletters to more than one person.)

If your organisation is already a Member, please just fill in the first few lines of the form, and we will include you in the mailing list for the newsletter, without creating a whole new page for your organisation. You will also be able to set up a login for yourself, to submit a job application form, or edit your organisation’s page.

Once you have submitted the application form, you will be redirected to a registration page for the website. Here you will set a username and password for the VSF website. You will need this to access member services, discounts, priority booking and Knowledge Bank.

Associate members receive free access to the VSF daily newsletter, and access to the Knowledge Bank on our website, but not the other benefits.This is appropriate for individuals, public sector employees, consultants, professionals who work with the charity sector (eg. lawyers, accountants) and voluntary organisations whose remit does not cover Cornwall.

If you or your organisation wish to become associate members, please use this form.
